Gridpack crashes

[Garrett]

I'm getting this output when attempting to run a gridpack on a cluster machine.

Now generating 200000 events with random seed 0 and granularity 1
Traceback (most recent call last):

Any way I can fix this asap?

[Garrett (thegrb93)]

Fixed it myself by setting line 657 of common_run_interface.py to
if MADEVENT and self.options.has_key('mg5_path') and self.options['mg5_path']:

Hi,

Thanks for this,

but in the latest version of the code, I see the following at that file/line
        # update the path to the PLUGIN directory of MG%
        if MADEVENT and 'mg5_path' in self.options :

Is it possible that you are not up-to-date with your version of MG5aMC?

Cheers,

Olivier

Yes I'm up to date. That is the line I replaced and it doesn't work because 'mg5_path' in self.options returns true even when self.options["mg5_path"] contains a NoneType

Thanks a lot, I have put your changes inside the development version.

Thanks,
